Xiao Chunmei sighed, "Oh! Don't mention it. You just came back after the Little New Year, and my grandma insisted that girls shouldn't run around after the Little New Year. If Zhou Hua hadn't called me after the sixth day of the New Year, she wouldn't have let me out."

Zhou Xiang raised his eyebrows and looked at his third brother. His third brother didn't even mention it after sending the New Year gift back!

Zhou Hua said nothing.

Zhou Xiang asked, "Isn't your grandma your uncle's? Why is she coming to your house for the New Year this year?"

"It must have been instigated by my aunt. Ever since my dad opened the shop and made some money, he's increased the living allowance he gives to grandma. She's become more and more greedy. I've advised him not to give too much, but he won't listen!

They often find all sorts of excuses to borrow money, and this time they said it was their eldest cousin’s wedding and they didn’t have enough money. My mom didn’t want to lend it anymore, saying she’d never paid it back, so my grandma decided to stay and not leave.”

"It turns out that your grandmother and your uncle's family are both top-notch!"

"What's the meaning?"

"When it's a positive word, it means the best and the finest. When it's a negative word, you can imagine it. It's the best of all negative words, or simply the best."

Xiao Chunmei clapped her hands. "That's so fitting, Zhou Xiang. I've found that many of your words are the most insightful and to the point."

Zhou Xiang interrupted her with a wave of his hand, "If you keep going any further, I'll become a top-notch person."

Xiao Chunmei was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "This joke is a bit dull."

While the two were chatting, Zhou Hua had already bought eight movie tickets.

I don’t know if Zhou Hua did it on purpose, but the eight movie tickets were divided into four places, two by two. Naturally, three couples took the movie tickets, and the remaining two belonged to Jiang Weihua and A Lian.

The two did not feel that there was anything wrong. Instead, they felt that there was no one to help or take care of them, and it would be nice for them to experience how to match the numbers.

The six people over there were all seated, but these two were still looking for seats.

It wasn't until the movie was about to start that A-Lian cheered, "I found it."

The audience near them looked at this couple of idiots as if they were idiots. Only idiots and rednecks wouldn't look for their seat numbers!

Zhou Xiang pulled Ling Ran's sleeve and said, "If they really get together, how many jokes will they make when they go out to play?"

Ling Ran grabbed her hand and held it, "It's okay, you'll get used to it over time."

This is a comedy movie, and there are bursts of laughter in the cinema from time to time. Jiang Weihua tries hard to integrate himself into the lives of ordinary people. When he hears everyone laughing casually, he relaxes and joins in the fun.

A-Lian was not pretentious and smiled along with the plot in the movie.

Seeing her happy, Jiang Weihua couldn't help but laugh. She is still a child!

Seeing the funny and exciting moment, A-Lian couldn't help but pull his sleeve. Only after he expressed his approval would she let go of his sleeve and continue staring at the movie screen.

The movie was over, the bell rang, the lights came on, and the two stood up and walked out of the theater with the large crowd.

At the entrance of the cinema, eight people gathered. Zhu Hang suggested going to the restaurant to eat spicy hot pot, and seven people seconded the suggestion.

The Malatang business was very good. When Zhong Xiong saw that the boss and Zhou Xiang had arrived, he quickly opened the only two private rooms and let them sit in them.

Zhou Xiang saw that many of the customers were couples of men and women, probably waiting to watch a movie or having just finished watching a movie.

Not long after they sat down, Zhong Xiong came in with paper and pen and asked them to fill it out themselves.

Zhou Xiang took Jiang Weihua and A Lian to the glass cabinet outside and asked them to compare the actual food and choose what they wanted to eat.

Then he pointed at the chairs and said, "Zhong Xiong, these chairs are no longer suitable. Come in later and I'll draw a picture for you."

"Okay!" Zhong Xiong responded excitedly.

Zhong Xiong came in after everyone had almost finished eating, and Zhou Xiang handed him the drawings of the back-to-back booth dining table and chairs.

"Look, the height of the chair backs creates a barrier between the tables and saves space. One wall has tables for four, and the other wall has tables for six. The space in between is wide enough, so these two private rooms are unnecessary. They just take up too much space when they're not used!"

Zhong Xiong shook the blueprint in his hand and said, "Auntie! When you come back for summer vacation, I should let you come to the store to take a look. We always feel that there are not enough tables to sit, and it is too messy when there are many people. I just don't know what to do."

Zhu Hang patted his shoulder and said, "The generations are messed up."

"Yes, sir, I'm so excited."

After paying the bill and leaving, Zhou Hua sent Xiao Chunmei home, and the six of them returned to the market town first.

However, as soon as he got home, he saw someone he didn't want to see, and Zhu Hang felt a headache.

"Father."

Pang Changrong was playing with Jian Jiankang. Seeing his eldest son coming back, he smiled and said, "You're back?"

Zhu Hang nodded, then looked at his sons, "Have you finished your homework?"

Jian Jiankang shook his head and complained, "Grandpa told me to play with him for a while."

Zhu Hang waved his hand and said, "Hurry back and do your homework."

"Okay!" The two children ran quickly to the South Building. They didn't like their grandfather's family, but they had to accompany them. It was too hard for them.

Only after his favorite grandson ran away did Pang Changrong finally have the energy to talk to his son. "I just came to visit relatives and see my two grandsons."

Zhu Hang sighed and sat down beside him, "Are you unwilling to give up?"

Pang Changrong quickly shook his head. Would he dare? "You can't refuse to let me see my grandson, right?"

Zhu Hang was merciless. "Didn't you see how reluctant the two children were just now? You only cared about your own feelings. Didn't you think about the distress your actions caused them? Did you add discomfort? Didn't you make them realize how helpless they were?"

Pang Changrong's expression turned unhappy. "Feelings can be cultivated."

"But, have you shown your sincerity? The little bit of true love you gave them can't make up for the contempt they suffered in Hangzhou. How can you cultivate them? Should you unilaterally cultivate their fear of you? Or cultivate a temperament like your mother's?"

Pang Changrong didn't know how to answer.

Zhu Hang continued to ask, "What exactly do you want to do? You used to look down on the Zhou family and find fault with them, wanting your two grandsons back. Now that you can't get close to the Zhou family, you still want to use the two children as a cover. Do you still have any heart?"

You've been exploiting me, and now you're exploiting your children. Besides power, what else can you see? What about family affection? What about the bond between grandparents and grandchildren? Relationships can't be cultivated with just a few nice words. They need to be cultivated with heart, with sincerity, with a loving heart. Do you have that?

Your so-called love with utilitarian motives will destroy my two children. Please let them go, okay?"

Pang Changrong's face turned pale as he was accused. "You mean I'm not worthy?"

Zhu Hang nodded, "Yes, they are not worthy! From you to your brothers and sisters, all of you are obsessed with greed and are not worthy of being my relatives. Don't force me to officially sever ties with you.

You have made me completely disappointed in family affection. I am very glad that I did not grow up in your family and develop such a disgusting character."
